Also off to do a double Zumba / Fitstep class with Ian Waite tonight (just to shake it up a bit :) )

Had such a fun night with 3 guys from work (and that dick chef wasn't involved!). We spent the night drinking, chatting and dancing to Motown :D The older chef was also throwing out all his old recipe books as he doesn't use them so I got about 20 really awesome cook books!

Having stalked your account, I safely be disappointed that you couldn't remember the Blade Runner quote.

Went to the Peacock's "Sausage Society" for dinner...

Image - obviously

...and had Beef Stroganoff sausages. It's a pretty good deal, you get:

2 Sausages
Mash AND roast potatoes
Stuffing
Three non-potato veg
Yorkshire Pudding
A drink of your choice

for £6.95
All right, so I MADE a mistake! ONE MISTAKE!
Can't a man start over?! Do I have to keep on PAYING?! HUH?!
Maybe I should make another mistake! ...maybe TWO more!

My gym membership gets me access to most the pools, gyms and exercise classes in Reading. I decided to give Zumba ago at one of the other sports centres (loved it) but when there the woman said my membership was stopped in May, So I said that was bull and that I have been swimming pretty much 4 / 5 times a week since I got the card so she still let me in for free but said to check with bank.

Anyway got back home and for some reason my bank cancelled the Direct Debit in May, so I went to the pool and explained expecting a huge charge, but they just reset it up... so basically I got the last half year for free :eyes:

I had my week 3 weigh in last night. Decided as well as swimming to take up a few exercise classes and this week I have lost over 10% of my weight from the beginning of the year (which I am pretty chuffed with in 3 weeks).

Also found out that Code are playing in Guildford tomorrow night so heading there for a gig :)

It's two of my best friend's Birthdays in a couple of weeks and one will be having a BBQ and one is going to Shoreditch to a gin bar :) I am pretty excited as I am not really going out at the moment unless it is a special occasion... and I have 2 gorgeous dresses for both :)
